Audrey's nursery is finally coming together! Not my ideal to bring a baby home in the middle of construction, but with food, love and plenty of sleep, she doesn't seem to notice! We have the room painting, the chest of drawers from IKEA is transformed with new knobs and a changing table pad (I love the height of this chest--higher than most and more comfortable I think):

We moved in the armoire I painted a high-gloss red years ago, with the tassles my mother found for me when I was talking about a black, white and red nursery (still has some black white and red so this works!):

I LOVE the C.O.M. upholstered glider! So glad I did the red piping as I think it really makes the chair. The throw pillow was made by my very thoughtful friend, Lori--I just loved it when she brought it over. Still can't believe we have this little girl in our family!

And of course, the all important crib bedding! I used a Moda Dottie white-with-red-dot fabric for the inside and piped the bumper in the reverse. I love the look of the polka dots together with this floral fabric. Makes it a bit more light hearted.

My favorite is the skirt. I made it straight with box pleats and the polka-dot contrast fabric inside the pleats and banded at the bottom. Can't wait to get it all put together on the crib!
